I'm erasing my thread since I don't like having lots of personal info posted too long. I'm paranoid like that. Thanks to everyone for their advice.

Start getting into a social circle. Meetup.com is a good place to find people with similar interests and some groups are dedicated to being meet and greet.
A friend has had some sucess with the dating sites, but only the one's where EVERYONE pays to get involved. The freebies (like yahoo) seem to be "oh good, men still flirt with me" kinds of things.
And friends. Make friends. In the US it is really all about social networking.
Sometimes I think the people in India have a good idea when the whole family tries to find a good person to marry.
Yeah, I think just making friends in general helps. Then you meet their friends and so on.





I'm not a lady, but:
For starters, school is a great place to meet girls...classes, cafeteria, study groups, extracuricular activities, etc. You're going to find girls that are in your age group, probably ambitious and motivated like yourself, and already having at least one thing in common with you. Just take a chance and introduce yourself when you see one you're attracted to and see what happens.
What other interests or activities are you involved in?

Just get out and meet people. Doesn't have to be a club setting, just out. Talk to new people and you never know what will happen.
Women can smell desperation. So watch out for that one...

If you know you have a tendency to jump in too quickly, just take it easy. Good things come to those who wait.

What kind of law do you intended to practice? Have you thought about doing volunteer work related to your degree, or tutoring other students? If you're the "serious" kind of dater, you should try to appear earnest...Put your best foot forward. You seem to want to avoid the party scene, which is smart.
I usually dismiss law students as potential mates (hate lawyers) but I recently had the nicest hot tub conversation with a law student from Chicago (NO I didn't sex him up, he had a girlfriend.) But anyway, I lost my preconceived notion- I just had to talk to the dude for an hour. LOL
Aren't there a lot of hot female law students and paralegals?
I met my husband at my job. I was the manager at a security systems office and he came in to move boxes, and he was fabulous! lol
Anyway I wasn't looking for anyone, I know it seems silly but at times if you look too hard you won't find what you are looking for.
Ok, well, as a 23 year old who wants a relationship, that makes you as unique as a unicorn. No kidding! But that's good. Do you want to be married within a few years? What kind of debt are you carrying from school? Can your parents help if you choose to start a family and start your career at the same time? Have these answers in your head because if you're lucky enough to meet a girl your age who wants the same things out of life, you might as well be straightforward.
Don't be idle and idealistic and "hope things work out" because at your age, it's easy to to be fickle and careless. It's also easy to let a good girl go...
(I am just so flabbergasted at a 23 year old male who wants a serious relationship. When I was your age, I never dated guys my age- they couldn't wipe their own asses...No men among them.)
